On one side was the imposing rescue warship, ready to battle the Void Ancient Beast, while on the other, four cultivators of the Celestial Path Track were still calmly eating, their expressions bewildered.
Venerable Qi Ying was the first to break the awkward silence, a gleam flashing in his eyes as he cupped his hands and said, "Are the four of you below from Xin Black Bull's construction team?"
"Moo moo~"
"Indeed, we are honestly constructing the Celestial Path Track. I wonder what offense we've committed to warrant such a grand display?"
Chen Xun slowly stood up, his voice unusually calm yet resonating in all directions, "We haven't embezzled any resources from the track. Everything reported is docunted, and we act with integrity."
"Are you Chen Xun?"
"That's right, it's . And as for the rules of the grand world..."
"We're here to rescue you."
Just as Chen Xun was speaking eloquently, he was suddenly interrupted by this statent, his words cut off abruptly, and he instinctively exclaid, "Huh?"
"Moo?!" Black Bull was also taken aback, but it seed they indeed harbored no malice or hostility.
Little Crane and Little Chi exchanged a glance, confusion flashing in their eyes. There had never been any danger, so what was there to rescue... they had never called for help.
Venerable Qi Ying looked at them seriously, never underestimating them due to their cultivation, and smiled, "You've constructed forty thousand lengths of the track in just a century, nearing disconnection. Haven't you noticed?"
"Oh..." Chen Xun suddenly realized, cupping his hands in response, "Senior, to be honest, we can still hold on. We would never let ourselves fall into danger, so we just kept building."
"Hehe, you've worked hard on constructing the track, co aboard quickly."
Venerable Qi Ying's smile deepened, his voice harmonious and filled with goodwill, "Seeing you alive is enough; nothing else matters. Welco back."
"Welco back!"
Suddenly, the cultivators on the warships all showed respect, speaking in unison, cupping their hands towards them. The powerful voices stirred the void, spreading like ripples.
The words sent a shock through Chen Xun and his companions, their gazes sweeping over the crowd.
Whether it was the Great Ascension Venerable or the various cultivators here, they always gave them a feeling completely different from outside cultivators...
Chen Xun and Black Bull exchanged a glance, the yellow-tier jade token in their storage ring vibrating intensely. They were indeed among their own, and the cultivators here posed no threat, with only one Great Ascension Venerable present.
Chen Xun weighed the situation in his mind, cupped his hands towards the surroundings, and finally smiled, beginning to pack up and head towards the space warship.
Buzz—
The space warships began their return journey, but this ti the speed was noticeably slower, as no one wanted to waste too many top-grade spirit stones.
Venerable Qi Ying began to explain the situation, without any intention of blaming them, only emphasizing that it was good they were alive.
But upon hearing that they had burned top-grade spirit stones to co, Chen Xun couldn't hold back, his voice hoarse and shouting, "Senior, what a waste!"
He was heartbroken, lanting the misunderstanding, thinking those spirit stones would have been better given to them.
Venerable Qi Ying chuckled, suddenly changing the topic, "It seems you are hiding your cultivation here, perhaps due to so enemies outside?"
He didn't probe further, but their current aura was still at the Void Refinent phase, which wasn't ideal, as it could lead to missed opportunities.
"Not at all, to be honest, we've gotten used to being self-reliant outside, hehe, actually we're at the mid-Unity stage."
Chen Xun chuckled, boasting without hesitation, "It wasn't intentional to hide, please don't bla us, Senior."
"Of course, I understand." Venerable Qi Ying was unpretentious, his hair as black as crow feathers, his gaze calm and ancient, yet his stature was tall and imposing, with broad shoulders and a straight back, exuding authority.
He finished speaking with a look of understanding, their cultivation was about what he expected, especially Xin Black Bull, whose formation skills were exceptional, earning his respect.
"This is Xin, my young friend."
"Moo~"
"On my way here, I observed your formation techniques for constructing the track. Have you created a new formation diagram for the track?"
Venerable Qi Ying's attention was focused on him, surprised that he couldn't speak, then said, "You can continue speaking, I have a small technique to understand your aning."
"Moo moo~ moo moo!"
"I see, hehe." Venerable Qi Ying was all smiles, his eyes filled with admiration, "You needn't worry, the cultivators of the three heavenly regions will never covet your techniques or achievents."
"Just seeing fellow Daoists and seniors coming to rescue us, we have no such thoughts."
Chen Xun interjected sincerely, "This place is indeed quite different from the world of immortals we imagined, and we're happy to construct the track, contributing to the three heavenly regions."
"Even so, Chen Xun, my young friend, you will receive all the immortal resources you deserve."
Venerable Qi Ying's eyes flashed with satisfaction, introducing himself, "I am Qi Ying, one of the thirty-six formation masters of the Qiankun Formation Hall in Yuxiao Heaven, and the hall master of Qiankun Hall."
As he finished speaking, Little Crane's eyes flashed with shock. The Qiankun Formation Hall was a giant force at the central hub of the Celestial Path Track, comparable to Xuanwei Heaven's Misty, a power not to be underestimated...
Unexpectedly, they had such an honor, to have a Great Ascension cultivator of such status personally co to rescue them, a status not even the Chi family's ancestor could compare to.
Black Bull snorted heavily, unable to see through it!
This person's ans of concealing his formation aura were already masterful, seemingly ordinary, making them think he was just a regular Great Ascension cultivator.
Chen Xun's smile gradually beca stiff, realizing this person's power was significant, even greater than Old Yin's Li Chen Immortal Palace!
"No need to be nervous." Qi Ying smiled calmly, his gaze becoming deep, "Constructing forty thousand lengths of track in a century is worthy of my personal visit."
He then looked at Black Bull, speaking again, "The situation here has been reported back to the Celestial Path Track. Xin, my young friend, I look forward to your future. If you can beco the Celestial Path Track's Heaven-tier formation master... your future is limitless."
Black Bull stared at him blankly, looking honest, with no unusual expression: "Moo~~"
Chen Xun, Little Crane, and Little Chi stood quietly behind Black Bull, realizing this wasn't about them, just following along as little brothers.
Chen Xun was happy with this, almost bursting with laughter inside, as Bull's strength was only slightly weaker than his, deserving such recognition.
Qi Ying and Black Bull engaged in casual conversation about the construction of the track. If the formation diagram could be improved, it would benefit millions of cultivators here, not just a single track.
Buzz—
A vast humming sound echoed through the void, as the space warships swiftly headed towards the Celestial Path Track hub, gradually disappearing into the boundless darkness.
Half a month later.
In front of the Yellow-tier Formation Palace, a grand formation avenue was laid out, gleaming with golden light, surrounded by banners fluttering in the spiritual qi storm.
Cultivators from various races lined up in two rows, their expressions solemn. They ca from different races and sects, representing their respective forces and formation legacies, yet at this mont, they gathered together.
In front of the formation palace, a massive Rosefinch stood, and before it hovered a set of magical artifact attire, faintly inscribed with Earth-tier formation symbols.
Countless figures were spread across the vast formation base, dressed in luxurious robes, wearing splendid crowns, holding magical artifacts or formation flags, exuding powerful auras.
Nurous formation experts, sect elders, and talented disciples gathered here, their gazes fixed on the grand spectacle in the void.
The atmosphere was solemn, all cultivators' eyes focused on the end of the formation avenue, where space fluctuations were intense, and space warships slowly erged.
The cultivators remained unmoved, their gazes gradually becoming respectful, as four cultivators had constructed over thirty thousand lengths of track in a century!
Black Bull was the first to step off the space warship, his eyes trembling, instinctively glancing back at Chen Xun: "Moo..."
"Let's go, Bull, we're with you."
"Yes, second brother, Senior Qi Ying assured us there would be no punishnt."
"Brother Bull... slow down, my legs are a bit weak."
Little Chi gasped, unable to recognize all the beings from various races standing here, especially the Rosefinch at the forefront of the formation palace, its oppressive presence...!
Black Bull snorted heavily, slowly stepping onto the golden formation avenue, feeling hesitant, never having encountered such a situation before.
Chen Xun chuckled, feeling this strange sensation for the first ti, as it was always Bull following him, but today they were following Bull.
A fiery red fla shot into the sky, Que Yan spread its wings, and within the flas, a massive Rosefinch Dharma Aspect soared high, like a dazzling sun illuminating the void.
With the appearance of the Rosefinch Dharma Aspect, it suddenly opened its mouth, and a grand celestial sound echoed in the void, solemn and majestic, resounding through the void: "Welco back, Xin Daoist, to the Yellow-tier Formation Base!"
The celestial sound was deep and resonant, like thunder spreading through the void, filled with endless respect and reverence, shaking the heart, as if coming from a distant ti and space.
Its words, accompanied by the vibration of spiritual qi, spread in all directions, moving the entire Yellow-tier Formation Base.
"Welco back, Xin Daoist, to the Yellow-tier Formation Base!"
"Welco back, Xin Daoist, to the Yellow-tier Formation Base!"
...
At this mont, cultivators from all directions shouted in unison, their voices echoing across the land, the entire scene surrounded by auspicious energy, spiritual qi perating, like a boiling ocean, the atmosphere stirring and solemn!
"Moo~~~!"
Black Bull raised its head and roared, standing on two legs, transforming hooves into hands, cupping them towards the four directions, its imposing aura spreading, exuding an indescribable pressure and dominance.
Its eyes were firm and sharp, golden formation disks appearing around it, harmonizing with the formation avenue beneath its feet, bringing Chen Xun and the others before the Rosefinch in the blink of an eye.
Such a display made the formation Dao cultivators from all sides twitch... terrifyingly profound formation skills!
Que Yan's gaze also sharpened, a flash of amazent passing, retreating a few steps, and said, "Xin Daoist, three days ago, the true main formation force of the Celestial Path Track, the Celestial Formation Dao Palace, issued an appointnt order."
"Moo?"
"Xin Black Bull, appointed as Earth-tier, Celestial Path Track Inspector!"
"Granted the authority to open the formation palace, command tens of millions of Yellow-tier formation Dao cultivators, participate in the Qiankun Formation Hall's decisions, and command the formation Dao forces of the three heavenly regions, among other powers!"
Que Yan recited word by word, beams of light from the distant formation palace representing the recognition and affirmation of authority, smiling, "Congratulations, Inspector."
Black Bull was stunned by the news, its mind buzzing, taking a long ti to recover, while Chen Xun couldn't help but shout:
"Holy... is this for real?!"
"Brother Xun... this position, the appointnt for a century must start with top-grade spirit stones, right?!"
"Second brother... truly impressive."
Little Crane covered its mouth in astonishnt, its heart already in turmoil. The Celestial Formation Dao Palace, a giant in the Great World of Taiyi comparable to an immortal palace, the true leader of formation Dao, once suppressing an immortal ancient forbidden land with its entire palace!
It turned out the Celestial Path Track was such a world-shaking plan by this immortal Dao giant?!
